prolapse ewe's prolapse disappeared and now has two lovely lambs

First lamb was stuck at the head and was an absolute huge huge beast, its obvs from the charollais cross hamsphire, he weighs 7kilo, took a while to get him out, poor ewe
He was followed by a lovely big shetland lamb, came out fine, narrow head, short tail and finer bones but still a big strong lamb.

Shetland lamb was up and drinking within 2 mins, running and skipping not long after, by the time he had had maybe his 4th drink, the bigger lamb had started to stand up lol

Funny that she has one of each!!

At the same time a shetland cross ewe popped out a stunning set of shetland twins, both lovely and both up and drinking and skipping within mins, 1 ewe lamb and 1 ram lamb, so so pretty!!!
